Uncle Abner lived before the Civil War in what is now West Virginia. Uncle Abner is the best-known literary creation of Melville Davisson Post. Uncle Abner solved the mysteries that confronted him in a backwoods Virginia community, in the first years of the nineteenth century, before the infant American nation had any proper police system. http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Uncle-Abner-Mystery-Library/dp/0891630287/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1424459982&sr=1-1&keywords=the+complete+uncle+abner
